Committee Reports:

Correspondence:

A letter from a parent whose child broke his leg after the 2nd game.  Wants a full refund.  Our policy stays no refund after the first game is played.  We’ve already incurred much of the cost associated with having a child in the league.  Sophia moved to offer a voucher for $30 off next year’s registration.  Jeff 2nd.  Approved.

 

Treasurer: Discussion of pending expenses.  Money needs to be transferred to cover.  Steve L. moved to transfer $17K.  Jeff 2nd.  Approved.

 

District:  We should keep yellow registration forms until players “age out”, not just 5 years.  Next year the District will do a test of on-line registration.

 

Class I:  There will be 9 U15 class I teams.  We’ll need refs to cover our team’s home games.

 

Metro:  The income is up from the Ore Cart tournament.  Next year we might be able to do 20 weeks of training.  We continue to have a problem in getting qualified refs for Metro games.  The club coaches are supposed to be available to ref on their home days, and this isn’t always working.  General discussion of how to improve this for next year.

Registration:  Many kids are wanting to change teams.  Cathy is trying to deal with the legitimate requests..

Fields:  General discussion of the problems with getting goals in the right place for the weekend’s games.  We’ll discuss more for next year.

AGM:  We’ll hold it on the Nov 21.  Sophia to find a place and Steve L to find a caterer.

Meeting adjourned.
